About

Dr Ankur Gulati is a consultant intervention cardiologist with over 20 years of experience. Alongside his substantial NHS practice at Guy’s and St. Thomas’ and Lewisham Greenwich Hospital trusts, he cares for patients with all types of cardiology-related issues here at Nuffield Health.
He has honed specialist skills in coronary stenting, but has additionally accrued a keen interest in heart scans, particularly MRI and CT. He also provides expert advice for cardiovascular disease prevention, particularly in relation to heart-related risk factors such as high blood pressure and cholesterol.  

During his career, Dr Gulati has amassed numerous impressive academic achievements. He studied medicine at Cambridge University, where he was awarded a first-class degree in cardiovascular physiology and consecutive yearly university scholarships.

He also received ‘High Honours’ for a cardiology sub-internship at Harvard University, after which he secured prestigious junior doctor rotations at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, and the Queen’s Medical Centre, Nottingham. In recognition of his formal cardiology research, he was rewarded with an International Young Investigator of the Year award.  

 

Dr Gulati completed advanced specialist training in cardiology across 4 renowned London institutions (Barts Heart Centre, The Royal Brompton Hospital, The London Chest and Royal London Hospitals, The National Heart and University College Hospitals). He is one of the few intervention cardiologists from his cohort to have gained dual certification in both cardiology and general medicine.

By virtue of his training and NHS posts, he has developed an expansive professional network across London and uses this to deliver the best multi-disciplinary/specialty care whenever his patients require.  

 

With his extensive research and clinical expertise, Dr Gulati is passionate about sharing his knowledge with his medical students and cardiology trainees. His commitment to teaching and training has been acknowledged with letters of commendation from King’s College London.
